[quote=Anonymous]So when can the kids with Covid return to school? I'm Confused

"FCPS will adopt the new guidance with one exception:

[b]FCPS will adopt CDC’s recommendation for a five-day period of quarantine for students and staff.[/b]
FCPS will adopt CDC’s recommendation for a five-day period of isolation for staff.
FCPS will NOT adopt CDC’s recommendation for isolation for students as we are unable to implement the required physical distancing protocols during meals.  FCPS students with COVID- 19 will need to continue to complete a ten-day isolation period. 
Return Guidance for Students with COVID-19

Students who are COVID-19 positive are able to return to school when ALL of the following criteria are met:

[b]Student completes at least 10 days of isolation from symptom onset for symptomatic students or 10 days since testing positive [/b](day test administered) for COVID-19 for asymptomatic students; AND
Student is fever free for 24 hours without fever-reducing medication; AND
Student’s symptoms have improved; AND
Student submits the FCPS Isolation Letter with the return date to their attending school"
